Oh there’s a blessed future, but it has nothing to do with this world, which doesn’t have much a future, unfortunately. Things are NOT gonna get better.
It’s always something: global cooling, global warming, super flu, bird flu, monkey flu, cold war, atomic bombs, earthquakes, floods, fires, tornadoes…the list is endless. Sometimes you just gotta shut it all out and chill.
Evangelicals both think the world will end soon AND pooh-pooh anyone who talks about a coming devastating climate crisis. I have no explanation for this except "We disagree with anything labelled “‘liberal.’”
Given all that’s happened in the past five years or so, is the teacher really sure he wants there to be a future? Also, the answer is always either drinking more or lower standards.
There’s always gonna be negative stuff, uncertainties abound, however isn’t it amazing how wonderful and fearfully we are made by our creator, we deal with whatever may be fall us and He, the creator helps us. Therefore, rejoice in the present.
If you’d told me 30 years ago what my future would be I’m not sure I’d have believed it. Because today the guy with the martini glasses does have the right answer.

Every generation is full of people who think the world is ending. 1919, for example.

I wasn’t aware that Pig is a teenager still in education. But it fits to not yet having seen him at any kind of steady work.

I don’t have kids or grandkids. Kind of glad, because the future is not very bright, especially for girls and young women.
